Read the excerpt from chapter 7 of Night. One day when we had come to a stop, a worker took a piece of bread out of his bag and

threw it into a wagon. There was a stampede. Dozens of starving men fought desperately over a few crumbs. The worker watched the spectacle with great interest. Years later, I witnessed a similar spectacle in Aden. Our ship's passengers amused themselves by throwing coins to the "natives,” who dove to retrieve them. An elegant Parisian lady took great pleasure in this game. When I noticed two children desperately fighting in the water, one trying to strangle the other, I implored the lady: "Please, don’t throw any more coins!” "Why not?” said she. "I like to give charity . . .” Based on the details in this excerpt, what is the author’s primary purpose? to show how people everywhere need help to show how his opinion of humankind has changed to show that cruel behavior is not limited to only one situation to show that people may do things without thinking of the consequences

What evidence does President Obama use to support the claim that the child-refugee problem needs to be addressed and fixed? Sele
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

C). Obama uses logical evidence, since it is reasonable to state that refugees want homes of their own .

E). Obama uses anecdotal evidence, since he shares a personal experience he has had with a refugee.

Explanation:

The authors employ a variety of evidences to support and substantiate their claim in order to establish its credibility before the readers and gain their acceptance.

In the given speech, the United States president employs <u>logical evidence</u> by stating that refugees want homes of their own reasonably as they have been 'surviving on rations and aids till now' which helps in logically substantiating his claim that the issue of child-refugee needs attention and address in order to fix it permanently. He further employs <u>anecdotal evidence</u> by relating his personal experience with the refugee that helps gain audience's emotions of sympathy and concern over the issue(as they suffered unspeakable abuse...they pray..someone rescue them form torment'). Thus, these evidence not only support his claim but also elicits intended response from the audience. Therefore, <u>options C and E</u> are the correct answers.

The correct answer is C. The league produced many fine players, including Mary “Bonnie” Baker and Dorothy Kamenshek.

Explanation:

In the passage presented both sentence (11) and sentence (12) aim at providing the reader with examples on the players the AAGPBL produces, in the case of sentence (11) Mary "Bonnie" Baker is mentioned and sentence (12) adds Dorothy Kamenshek was equally a fine player that emerged from this women softball club, this implies both women are equally important, because of this both names should be linked by adding the conjunction "and", considering this conjunction expresses a relationship of equality between the element it joints. Besides this to show the reader these women are examples of the results of the softball club it is necessary to the word "including" and it is already clear they are examples of "many fine players" is not necessary to add any further information after the name of both women. Thus, the correct way to combine sentence (11) and (12) is "The league produced many fine players, including Mary “Bonnie” Baker and Dorothy Kamenshek" because it expresses both women are examples of fine players of the league and are in the same level.
